Computer Interfacing for Mechanics Laboratory

这笔资金支持为理科专业一年级和二年级学生继续开发物理实验室课程。受影响的学生主要是物理和工程专业的学生。这一实验室的发展为力学实验室的实验室设备提供了计算机接口，以帮助学生理解、实验和数据处理。计算机接口设备使学生能够在各种实验中进行线性和旋转动力学以及能量和动量守恒的研究。这一奖励由首席调查员所在机构提供的等额奖金相匹配。

This funding supports the continued development of a physics laboratory curriculum for freshman and sophomore science majors. The students principally affected are those majoring in physics and engineering. This laboratory development provides for the computer interfacing of laboratory equipment in a mechanics laboratory to aid student understanding, experimentation and data processing. The computer-interfaced equipment enables students to perform investigations in linear and rotational dynamics and the conservation of energy and momentum in a variety of experiments. This award is being matched by an equal amount from the principal investigator's institution.
